Equine estrogens, or horse estrogens, are estrogens found in horses. [1] [2] [3] They include the following: [1] [2] [3] Estradiol; Estrone; Equilin (Δ 7-estrone) Equilenin (Δ 6,8-estrone) 17α-Dihydroequilin (Δ 7-17α-estradiol) 17β-Dihydroequilin (Δ 7-17β-estradiol) 17α-Dihydroequilenin (Δ 6,8-17α-estradiol) 17β-Dihydroequilenin (Δ ...
Conjugated estrogens (CEs), or conjugated equine estrogens (CEEs), sold under the brand name Premarin among others, is an estrogen medication which is used in menopausal hormone therapy and for various other indications.
Equilin is a naturally occurring estrogen sex hormone found in horses as well as a medication. [1] [2] [3] It is one of the estrogens present in the estrogen combination drug preparations known as conjugated estrogens (CEEs; e.g. Premarin) and esterified estrogens (EEs; e.g. Estratab, Menest).
List of side effects of estradiol which may occur as a result of its use or have been associated with estrogen and/or progestogen therapy includes: [1] [2]. Gynecological: changes in vaginal bleeding, dysmenorrhea, increase in size of uterine leiomyomata, vaginitis including vaginal candidiasis, changes in cervical secretion and cervical ectropion, ovarian cancer, endometrial hyperplasia ...
Side effects of EEs include nausea, breast tension, edema, and breakthrough bleeding among others. [8] It is an estrogen, or an agonist of the estrogen receptors, the biological target of estrogens like estradiol. [5] [3] [4] EEs are a prodrug mainly of estradiol and to a lesser extent of equilin. [5] EEs were introduced for medical use by 1970 ...
Side effects of estradiol benzoate include breast tenderness, breast enlargement, nausea, headache, and fluid retention. [17] Estradiol benzoate is an estrogen and hence is an agonist of the estrogen receptor, the biological target of estrogens like estradiol. [4] [5] It is an estrogen ester and a prodrug of estradiol in the body.
Estradiol is a naturally occurring and bioidentical estrogen, or an agonist of the estrogen receptor, the biological target of estrogens like endogenous estradiol. [1] Due to its estrogenic activity, estradiol has antigonadotropic effects and can inhibit fertility and suppress sex hormone production in both women and men.
8,9-Dehydroestrone, or Δ 8-estrone, also known as estra-1,3,5(10),8-tetraen-3-ol-17-one, is a naturally occurring estrogen found in horses which is closely related to equilin, equilenin, and estrone, and, as the 3-sulfate ester sodium salt, is a minor constituent (3.5%) of conjugated estrogens (Premarin).
